Ingredients

4 lb. sweet potatoes

2 tbsp. butter (no substitutions)

½ orange marmalade

⅓ c. packed dark brown sugar

¾ tsp. salt

½ tsp. ground ginger

Lemon leaves

Directions

In 6-quart saucepot, place potatoes and enough water to cover; heat to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 5 minutes or until potatoes are barely fork-tender (slightly underdone); drain well. Place potatoes in shallow 2-quart casserole.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In 1-quart saucepan, cook butter over medium heat just until browned, but not burned, 4 to 5 minutes, stirring. (Butter should be the color of maple syrup.)
